I've been using FLAC frontend for ages to encode/decode my WAV's. I've just upgraded my music PC to Windows 7, and Frontend doesn't work with it. Can anyone recommend something else? Simple as possible, don't need bells and whistles.

why flac.. why not WAV or AIFF? HD space is cheap..

Im sure flac is fine for audio quality but as I buy all my music in WAV or AIFF (now because Beatport figured out the meta data issue) why would you want to encode music after buying it..

I guess it's habit. Having done it for so long. Oh, and you get some rudimentary tags with flac. But you're right, it doesn't really seem worth it. Especially when the production software I use (Steinberg) doesn't read FLAC so I have to decode/recode whenever I want to edit/process.
